DarthHookah Posted June 13, 2006 Share Posted June 13, 2006 in my quest to find the ultimate grape flavor, i have tried several brands. in no other flavor have i been so extensive. Al- Fakher didnt even taste like grape, it tasted like compost. hookah-hookah was ok, but the aftertaste was a little off, and it didnt burn so well (the smoke was also pretty thin) layalina, so far is the best, but my local shop has not been carrying it lately. which brings me to El Basha. here is my review- Blech. i couldnt get it to burn very well, the flavor was not so good, and the tobacco was bone dry. maybe i got a bad batch? i dunno, but ill never try it again. i will have to try to get some layalina grape, i suppose.

DownZero Posted June 13, 2006 Share Posted June 13, 2006 I would have to agree w/ Layanlina. I enjoy black grape the most, it's easy to get going really well and the taste and smell is great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mushrat Posted June 13, 2006 Share Posted June 13, 2006 El Basha is exactly like smoking a grape tootsie pop. I may have some al-amir grape around someplace if you want to give that a shot.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dude Abides Posted June 13, 2006 Share Posted June 13, 2006 I really don't mind El Basha grape. It's a good departure from the really astringent grape flavors like Al-Fakher's. Try mixing it with some cherry and apple... doesn't matter what brand. It works as a great grape mixer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve07 Posted June 14, 2006 Share Posted June 14, 2006 Did you review my thoughts on Al Amir grape? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c4r80n Posted June 14, 2006 Share Posted June 14, 2006 I agree. El Basha grape was disgusting.First grape I've tried and I'm hesitant to try others. Maybe some of this AF stuff will be good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarthHookah Posted June 15, 2006 Author Share Posted June 15, 2006 no- AF grape was simply horrid. i couldnt even finish a bowl- it literally tasted like compost. like i said- hookahhokah was ok (smoke was thin, flavor was good, aftertaste not so good), best so far ive had was layalina.

c4r80n Posted June 15, 2006 Share Posted June 15, 2006 but everyone else says it's so yummy. esp the white grape.layalina is definately the underdog comming up. Nice price for good tobacco flavors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
